Folding Panama Straw Fedora Hat |
---|
Handwoven in Ecuador, Finished in the USA A classic center dent fedora style is brought to you with the packability of a fine panama hat in the Folding Panama Straw Fedora Hat by San Francisco Hat Co. Rather than the single straw weave that is standard in panama hats, the Folding Panama Straw Fedora Hat is made from two strands of straw rolled together and then woven in order to withstand repeated folding and better retain its shape. Classic styling meets function in the Folding Panama Straw Fedora Hat - a wide brim, adjustable drawstring grosgrain ribbon hat band and moisture wicking CoolMax sweatband all make this the one panama hat you'll ever need! How to Properly Fold Your Panama: * Fold crown along the center. * Fold the brim's sides up toward the crown to make a "taco," see photo included in hat images. * Steam can help you return your hat to its original shape. Tip: Place hat in the bathroom while you shower for easy steaming; smooth back to shape with your fingers. Please Note: *Just like folding a shirt or any other article of clothing creates creases, so will folding your hat. Steaming can help smooth the creases out, but will not fully remove the creases.* *Folding your panama hat will shorten the lifespan of your hat.* Approx. 3 1/2" Center Pinch Crown 3 1/4" Snap Brim Made of: 100% Panama Straw (Toquilla Palm) Handwoven in Ecuador Blocked and Finished in the USA Adjustable Grosgrain Ribbon Hat Band Elasticized COOLMAX® Sweatband - Moisture-Wicking Unlined Packable Sizes: S, M, L and XL; fits true to size. |

Heritage Collection 1900s Homburg |
---|
Made in the USA About the time of Bollman Hat Company's Founder's death in 1900 and beginning of the leadership of his son George W. Bollman, the Homburg hat was taking its place in hat style history. Popularized in England by Edward VII after visiting Germany and bringing one back as a keepsake, the Homburg is one of the oldest formally-styled hats. As the King of England from 1901 to 1910, Edward was known as "The Peacemaker" for his efforts in fostering good relations between England and other European countries. Perhaps the Homburg was a perk of the King's diplomatic successes, but the style enjoyed its own surprising success in Great Britain and in America. The Homburg resurfaced in the 1970's as the "Godfather" and eventually became an early staple of the hip-hop movement. The Bollman Hat Company contributed its own color and flair during each phase of the Homburg's evolution. Bollman was integral to developing the style's current counter-cultural appeal by creating a variety of diverse colors including sugar pink, burnt orange, lime green and lemon yellow. Approx. 4 1/4" Center Dent Crown 2 3/4" Curled Brim Made of: 100% Wool Felt Printed Leather Sweatband Custom 140th Lining Sizes: S, M, L, and XL; fits true to size. |

Heritage Collection 1860s Wide Awake Wool Felt Hat |
---|
Made in the USA Bollman Hat Company digs deep into the annals of its history to capture and commemorate this long forgotten style. The Wide Awake hat was inspired by the paramilitary campaign organization of the 1860s. The Wide Awakes, affiliated with the Republican Party during the 1860 election, supported Abraham Lincoln and the Union while strongly opposing slavery. The Wide Awakes were well-drilled and served as political police in escorting party speakers and in preserving order at party demonstrations and had over 400,000 estimated members. The standard Wide Awake uniform consisted of a full robe or cape, a torch, and of course the black hat for which we pay tribute. The Bollman Hat Company produced this hat and all of their hats in black only when George Bollman and Isaac Sowers first opened their hat factory in Adamstown, Pennsylvania in 1868. Approx. 3 1/2" Curled Brim 4" Round Crown Made of: 100% Wool Felt Made in the USA Grosgrain Ribbon Hat Band Grosgrain Ribbon Bound Brim Printed Leather Sweatband Custom 140th Lining Sizes: S, M, L and XL; fits true to size. |

Heritage Collection 1920s Fedora Hat |
---|
Made in the USA The "Roaring Twenties", as the decade is affectionately dubbed, saw an explosion of rich cultural activity, brought on by unprecedented economic prosperity. Gangsters, flappers, speakeasies, jazz and the Charleston were sweeping the nation. Fashion likewise grew by leaps and bounds during this time, as the public became less and less inhibited by prior social standards. People were finally "letting loose" by donning such aesthetically-audacious ensembles. The term Fedora was in use as early as 1891 but the style really took off in the Twenties, topping off men's fashion during a golden age. The Fedora featured a pinched crown with the brim turned down in the front and up in the back. This complimented the women's Cloche style. Indeed, blithe indulgence marked this decade. And once again, Bollman was there indulging hat lovers with headwear that made a personal fashion statement and truly captured the exuberance of America at the time. The Fedora has evolved and endured and Bollman has produced more varieties of the Fedora than any other style in it's history. Approx. 4" Center Pinch Crown 2 1/2" Underwelt Brim Made of: 100% Wool Felt Printed Leather Sweatband Custom 140th Lining Sizes: S, M, L, and XL; fits true to size. |

Heritage Collection 1950s Roy |
---|
Made in the USA The King of the Cowboys, Roy Rogers, was a famous singer and cowboy actor during the days of television. He and his third wife Dale Evans (the Queen of the West), his golden palomino Trigger, and his German Shepard Bullet, were featured in over one hundred movies and The Roy Rogers Show which ran on radio for nine years before moving to television from 1951 through 1957. In post-war America, Roy was the embodiment of the western hero. For the Bollman Hat Company, he was a champion of headwear on both the big and small screen. Roy Rogers visited the Bollman factory in 1960 to express gratitude to Bollman Employees for providing him with his signature hat. It was quite a day in Adamstown as Rogers was a beloved figure. Upon addressing the employees, Roy toured the factory, signed autographs and posed with children from the community.
